To succeed in an estate agents professional negligence claim it is necessary to show that there existed a duty of care which was breached by negligence resulting in direct financial losses. The usual client relationship is sufficient to prove the duty of care and negligence is a failure to take reasonable care. Losses must be proved and must be shown to have been directly caused by the negligent act. Losses that are not reasonably foreseeable are deemed to be too remote and cannot be claimed.
